Release 22.1 (April 2022)

[pradyunsg]

Oh wow, March is almost over. Time flies. Well, the doctype drama from the last release is what made it last longer than I'd have liked.

x-ref pypi/warehouse#10726

So... who wants to be the release manager this time @pypa/pip-committers? :)

[pradyunsg]

I can pick this up -- I'll likely cut this early next month. I think this will end up being a fairly tame release, looking at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/news/.

Thanks @pradyunsg !

There are a few gone_in="22.1". Do we confirm we want to remove --out-of-tree-build in this release ? In which case I can prepare the PR.

Alrighty, assigning myself as the RM for this release as well then!

There are a few gone_in="22.1".

Yup, I'll file PRs for them over the course of today.

Whelp, turns out I don't read carefully, and this is the first PR I've filed. 😅

pypi/warehouse#11014 should be an easy review! :)

It also seems at the moment, that pypi/warehouse#10962 might have introduced a regression -- jazzband/pip-tools#1539 (comment).

Ok, I've marked that as a release blocker. I'll make a beta release before the end of the month, with the current state of main.

Am I OK to try to get pypi/warehouse#11059 into the release, or would you prefer me to wait? I think it's just a matter of me merging, but if you're concerned about last-minute changes I can defer it to the next release.

[pradyunsg]

Let's get that in. :)
